with a 5th gen accord just take off the grill and front bumber cover. the headlamp removal is pretty straight forward at that point. I recommend getting a Haynes repair manual for your specific model to get more detailed instructions.

to take off the bumper remove two bolts behind each bumper signal and one at each end connecting it to the fender. then lift up and pull off.

Not that easy on a fifth gen. There are two bolts under each headlight that you have to remove before the bumper will come off. It's pretty tight between the headlight and the bumper.
